"Be Thankful" Tuesday

Some of the small and big things I love and am thankful for:

• Brick walls and a roof over my head to shelter me from the cold - so simple and yet so much more privileged than so many South Africans
• My family, who are always so supportive
• Dinner club :)
• Finally getting an appointment with my hairstylist! (I haven't had a haircut since the end of February, I'm starting to go a little crazy...)
• The absolutely insane guys I work with, who make our lab one of the most entertaining places to be
• Today's sunshine, providing a little bit of time to thaw out before the next cold front hits.
• Planning my very first blog giveaway! (Watch this space!)
• Home-baked bread
• Only having one weepy/crying day this week (it's been a good week)
• Coffee breaks with my BFF that go on for hours, where we talk about everything and nothing
• Finally getting around to watching Mad Men - and loving it!
• Winter strawberries
• The most magically everlasting bunch of roses (3 weeks and counting!)
